Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed specifications and operational guidelines for the M21 Series metal tube flowmeters, designed for measuring low flows of liquids, gases, and steam. These flowmeters are characterized by their robust construction, high performance in extreme conditions, and resistance to corrosion.
Specifications:
  • Material: EN 1.4404 (AISI 316L) stainless steel.
  • Flow rate ranges: Water (0.4 l/h to 1000 l/h), Air (12 Nl/h to 30 Nm3/h).
  • Accuracy: 4% at 50% of the flow range.
  • Connections: ¼” to ¾” BSP/NPT, with sanitary options available.
  • Temperature range: -80ºC to +250ºC without switches, -20ºC to +200ºC with switches/transmitter.
  • Pressure: PN16 with valve, PN40 without valve.
  • Ingress protection: IP65 standard, IP67 optional.
Working Principle: The M21 flowmeter operates on the variable area principle, where a float moves within a calibrated orifice. The float's position, influenced by fluid flow, corresponds to a specific flow rate, indicated via magnetic coupling on a graduated scale.
Applications: Suitable for control panels, pilot plants, machinery measurement, laboratories, water treatment, industrial heating/cooling, gas burner control, and chemical/pharmaceutical industries.
Models: Various models are available with vertical or horizontal connections, with or without regulating valves, and sanitary connections.
Options and Accessories:
  • Limit switches and electronic transmitters with ATEX certification.
  • Constant flow regulators (RCA/RCD) for maintaining flow rates under variable pressure conditions.
  • Damping mechanisms for stable readings in gas and steam applications.
Technical Data: Includes detailed flow scales, dimensions, and optional features like HART protocol for transmitters.
Certifications: The product complies with ISO 9001, Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/CE, and ATEX European Directive 94/9/CE.

Working principle The M21 flowmeter is a metal tube variable area flowmeter for low flows. It is based in the principle of variable area, which is obtained by a float that moves up and down inside a calibrated orifice. The force from the fluid, as it flows from the bottom to the top, displaces the float until it reaches an equilibrium point that is a function of: - E = force of the fluid flow - Pf = weight of the float  Working pressure: - PN16 (with regulating valve) - PN40 (without regulating valve) (others on request)  Sanitary connections according to ISO 2852, SMS 1145, DIN 11851, TRI-CLAMP®....
